a few years ago, so we're thrilled to see him coming back north to
join us in Ithaca," said Matt Kerwick, the Interim Richard M. Moran
Head Coach of Men's Lacrosse. "He will bring great size and
athleticism to the field after spending two seasons playing at an

was a leader both on the team and in the community in Chapel
Hill."
